Hello everyone, I posted this on the tech forum and someone advised me to put it here also so I figured I would.
I plan on making a 381 of my own for a final project in college, but I need a little help from all of you who own a 381 and probably even some who don't.
I need measurements! Looking at pictures can only get me so far, and I've looked at a lot. It would be awsome if anyone could help me out with a couple of measurements I was wondering about, or post links to pictures of disassembled 381's, body cavities, necks etc etc.
So, what I need ...
Pickup distance (between each other, from the end of the guitar). As well as the dimensions of their cavities also.
Body thickness(es)
Height of the carved top (minus the actual body)
Basically everything to do with the neck:
Fretboard width at 1st and 21st fret (taper angle)
Dimensions of the head (rough even)
Neck (head) angle
Depth of neck (bottom of fretboard down)
Overall length of neck
Length from the 21st fret to end (part of neck that is fastened to body
Distance that the fretboard goes into the body by
That's all that comes to mind at the moment, there might be a couple more things. If you can even cross one of these off my list it would be very greatly appreciated.
Calling all 381 owners!!
